Working in a Harvard Physics Department lab, a team of researchers led by Harvard Professors Mikhail Lukin and Markus Greiner and MIT Professor Vladan Vuletic has developed a special type of quantum computer, known as a quantum simulator, which is programmed by capturing super-cooled rubidium atoms with lasers and arranging them in a specific order, then allowing quantum mechanics to do the necessary calculations.

At Bell Labs, Chu carried out research on laser cooling and atom trapping, work that would earn him — along with Claude Cohen - Tannoudji and William Daniel Phillips — the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1997.
